Multiple Local IPs

External Since: Jul 18, 2004 Posts: 1

I have a machine running Windows 2000 Server that I use as a server
for local development. Its IP address on the LAN is 192.168.0.100. In
IIS, I would like to setup multiple distinct websites, not virtual
directories under the Default Web Site. How do I go about creating and
assigning unique IPs to these websites? And which hosts file would I
edit in order to give these IPs names so that I can access more easily
through a browser?

Add the IP in your network settings, create the new site, assign it to
the specific IP you wish, not "All UNassigned".

There's only one HOSTS file on a system. Normally in
\\WinNT\System32\etc\ The HOSTS.SAM is a sample file, a real HOSTS
file has no extension.
